Sustainable development is a major established in 2010 through the Earth Institute. Led by professors Ruth Defries and Jason Smerdon, the program allows students to take that class with Jeffrey Sachs they always dreamed of in high school. Often abbreviated to "sus dev," the major also exists as a special concentration, which attracts people interested in being eco-friendly without assuming the full risk of a major with some wonky requirements.
